Believe The Truth
Big surprise. Oasis have not managed the return to form they seek. OK no surprise there, but in fact they've done much much worse – Lyla, the new Oasis single (for I have acquired it) is awful. It sounds a little like their cover of Street Fightin' Man which appeared on the b-side of All Around the World, only with added quantities of self-parody, and worse, self-repetition (note lyrics about 'catching me if i fall' – I Hope, I Think, I Know off Be Here Now all over again). If we're making comparisons with recent lead singles, and we are, it's not a patch on Go Let it Out or The Hindu Times, both of which I quite like. Cue the comments about not matching their Definitely Maybe days.March 24, 2005

Carl Barat DJs… kind of
I present pictures of last night at Ramshackle. (Over there <-) 'Twas hearty fun. Carl Barat of Libertines fame hung around at the back of the stage and drunk beer a bit. They played Libs b-side Bangkok – woo! Apologies to anyone I didn't take photos of, and points to anyone who spots Chris getting close to Milly…March 15, 2005
Artsy Radio Fun
Writing about web page http://www.radio.warwick.ac.uk/~jbuckland
A lot of people have asked me "gosh how can we listen again to all those wonderful shows like the Arts Quiz and RaW Cinematic Hall of Fame"... a lot of people have also complained that there is nothing to listen to now that RaW has finished for the term. Well help is at hand! If you missed the RaW's fantastic speech radio (the bit I was responsible for at least), it's here , at least until we find a proper home for it…Oops I did it again, I made a blog
I've made a blog, initially to upload 26 photos of Dan's birthday (they're over there on the left). What fun that night was. I also have 80 more photos (trigger happy that night) – msn me if you want more.
